How about no one play the race card

It's beyond ridiculous for anyone to believe that Obama was not referring to race when he said this:

They are going to say he "doesn’t look like the other presidents on the currency, he’s a got a funny name.”

The obama campaign is saying:

"He was referring to the fact that he didn’t come into the race with the history of others. It is not about race."

Right. Give us all a frickin break. We all know what he was talking about. Flash back to June 21.

Obama: “We know what kind of campaign they’re going to run. They’re going to try to make you afraid."

“They’re going to try to make you afraid of me. He’s young and inexperienced and he’s got a funny name. And did I mention he’s black?”

At the time I thought, "Excuse me? who mentioned that you are black?"

The truth of the matter is that Obama is the only one who brings up race. The Democrats from Hillary to Rev. Wright brings up race.

But McCain and the Republicans never bring it up. Why? Because it honestly doesn't matter to us. At all. Only his beliefs and his policy, and his vision concerns us. We don't care what color Obama is, except for the fact that he is green.

That is his biggest problem.

Honestly, I don't think Obama himself wants to play the race card. I think his campaign is pushing it. It's a mistake. Don't accuse people of looking at race, when that is not what they do. That backfires.
